After the new social democracy: Social welfare for the 21st century

Social democracy has made a political comeback in recent years, especially under the influence of the Third Way. Not everyone is convinced, however, that Third Way social democracy is the best means of reviving the Left's project. This book considers this dissent and offers an alternative approach. Bringing together a range of social and political theories, After the new social democracy engage…

Advances in Oil Crops Research – Classical and New Approaches to Achieve Su…

The world production of main oil crops is steadily increasing, mainly due to population growth and increased use of oil crops in bio-fuel production and in edible vegetable oils. From the perspective of sowing area in the world, oil crops are only preceded by cereals in importance. Edible or industrial oils are extracted from seeds, fruits or mesocarp, and nuts of both annual and perennial s…

Advanced Terrain Mapping of the Gioia Tauro Plain Calabria Region, Italy

In the framework of the Terrafirma project, Persistent Scatterers Interferometry (PSI) has be used for mapping land subsidence at basin scale in Gioia Tauro plain (Italy). The investigated area is built over unconsolidated fine-grained sediments, where the increasing groundwater demands for irrigation have caused the natural sediment consolidation to progressively accelerate. Both historical (1…

Advances in Neuroimaging Data Processing

Directed connectivity between brain sources identified from scalp electroencephalography (EEG) can shed light on the brain’s information flows and provide a biomarker of neurological disorders. However, as volume conductance results in scalp activity being a mix of activities originating from multiple sources, the correct interpretation of their connectivity is a formidable challenge despi…

Advances in Neural Signal Processing

While it has been suggested that diagonal rhythmical bilateral movements promote improvement in motor and cognitive functions, no study that we are aware of has actually examined electrophysiological changes during diagonal movements. Therefore, we aimed to study cerebral activity during the performance of diagonal and vertical movements (DM and VM, respectively), through EEG recording focu…
